Corn Refiners Association

I've encountered some crazy stuff on tv before, but these latest string of commercials brings me to another level of o.O that I'm ashamed to be an american.  

Most folks know that High Fructose corn syrup will pretty much jack up ones internals to such a distraught degree that one should just go ahead and do aline of coke and get clap from the local been around, then spread the joy to the rest of the world.  Yet some how with declining profits and the scare that the corn industry would be hurt by the progressing realization of HFCS and it's effects on the Homo Sapien, that their recent marketing campaign would like to let the US denizens know that HFCS is all natural and that it's made from corn, has the same caloric intake as sugar and if taken in moderation would be 'Shiny.'  o.O O.o ahhhh~~~~  o~kay.

I have to wonder what the average American thinks is 'moderate' let alone if the average American even knows what real healthy living is all about.  Sure for the most part, the foods that we eat today are laced with ungodly matter that still baffles even me, that I would partake in such a communal kool-aid fest.  Yet, I try to reduce this activity in my life, knowing that eventually the effects of the chemicals that I've ingested will have a direct effect on me in the future.   Corporate America, National lobby power holding organizations, and I'd like to guess pharmecutical companies probably know or believe that the benefits out weigh the good.  Does this mean that they too consume of the same foods that the rest of the US eat.  Particularly the Lower income families that are the of the economic bracket that can afford to LIVE on nothing eles but that.  

I'm going to go pray now, to God, that I will love even the people whom do wrong, knowingly.  I will pray for this Nation that not for people to know of their wrongs but that the US as a blessed nation will know the love of God, the love of Christ and that the same love is with us all to share and take care of our fellow brothers and sisters.  God bless the people of this nation, and the leaders that are supposed to work for the benefit of the people and Your will.  

-Peace
